Nicholas II was descended from the long line of Romanov Tsars who exercised autocratic rule from the throne. Even though it was the nineteenth century, the Tsars were still considered almost divinely inspired by the peasant populace. He was not a capable ruler and dwelt on minor details of his personal life rather than affairs of the state. Within his circle of family and ministers he could exert authority (except that at one time his wife Alexandra actually said that she "wears the trousers"). Nicholas was completely out of touch with the country and felt the people would follow his every whim and edict simply out of love and reverence for his position as Tsar. He was wrong on both counts.

As to constitutionality, since there was no constitution, he wasn't bound by any such notion.
